> For example, NN-512 can exceed 48 effective FMADDs per cycle (on the 27 peak FMADD machine) with Winograd-Cook-Toom-Lavin, if the tensor is deep enough (enough channels) Roughly …

Would you share this no-knead recipe?

The AWS Rekognition study I believe you are referring to was fundamentally flawed in two ways. First, the threshold used was the default suggested for one-to-one matching (lower fa…

I've seen this argument made a lot, but have never found it convincing. Is there any empirical evidence to back it up? A quick Google search suggests it is a myth.

How did you find them? Was it worthwhile? Any recommendations for a company paranoid about IT security and considering hiring one?

Learned something new, fixed thanks!

Also in Denver! Would be thrilled to hang out with any fellow HN folks. E-mail in profile :)

True, but unlike other commodities it's easy to take a long position on gold with ETFs like GLD which actually store the physical gold. For other commodities (like oil with ticker …

Targeting FPGAs is something we've been keeping our eye on as well. Most of the pieces are in place. I think the last non-trivial part is removing any malloc()/free() calls. This s…

Going to take this opportunity to plug my related project [Likely](www.liblikely.org), a DSL for lowering machine learning inference algorithms. One of the projects we've built on …

Agreed! Instead we use a Slack channel called #todayiwill and people just enter a few bullet points when they get in.

Very exciting! I wonder how the short-term nature of the pilot program might have some inherent biases compared to the long-term study? Presumably there would be less dramatic chan…

Seems like the perfect opportunity to insert a plug for my project: http://liblikely.org/

Yes! And I would also add that: > LLVM IL is more cluttered with type annotations and casts. With LLVM moving to typeless pointers[1], this will be less true in the future than it …

We currently use PNC but their online interface is atrocious/broken and we have frequent problems transferring money. Furthermore, our experiences at their local branch have been d…

We published a paper on this a few years ago! Short answer: algorithms exhibit different accuracies on different races, genders, and ages. B. F. Klare, M. J. Burge, J. C. Klontz, R…

The people I know have been notified.

Replacing my workstation with a high-end laptop removed all but the power cord for me ;)

You might be interested in [Likely]( http://liblikely.org/ ), the programming language I've been working on. One of its core tenants is that "training == compilation". I haven't gi…

This is _not_ a post about auto-vectorization in Rust (which would have been a lot more interesting!). The provided Mandelbrot Set example is algorithmically similar to loop unroll…
